YOUR AGE BY EATING OUT
YOUR AGE BY DINER & RESTAURANT MATH
DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!
It takes less than a minute. Work this out as you read. Be sure
you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out! (You will need a pen/pencil and scrap of paper.)
This is not one of those waste of time things, it's fun.
1. Pick the number of times a week that you would like to go out to eat. (more than once but less than 10)
2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)
3. Add 5
4. Multiply it by 50
5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1758...
If you haven't, add 1757.
6. Now subtract the four-digit year that you were born.
You should have a 3-digit number
The first digit of this was your original number. (i.e., How many
times you want to go out to restaurants in a week.)
The next two numbers are YOUR AGE ! ------ (Oh YES, it is!)
THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2008) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT
LASTS!
